Items for discussion as reached in the list

  1. How much flexibility do specializers have to make exceptions to behaviors that are outlined in the DITA standard? (MUST, SHOULD, MAY discussion)
  2. What does it mean when we say that an implementation supports the DITA standard? Is the entire standard required or are some parts optional?
  3. Is the scope of DITA 1.2 as it is shaping up too large? Is the DITA specification becoming too complex?
  4. Is the approach outlined in the proposed DITA 1.2 documentation TOC a good approach?

Mary McRae on the timeline: "The most important thing for the TC to do is to produce quality work, and not try to constrain itself to timelines :) Too often I've seen TCs rush to make some self-imposed deadline only to discover that the schemas are incorrect, or the spec contains conflicting information. I know it's not what anyone really wants to hear, but it really is important, and even more so if considering submitting the specification for approval in other standards bodies."
